Overview

Points and Rewards by aheadWorks

Now you can greatly improve your Magento Community Edition store's functionality. With the Points & Rewards Magento extension, you get the expanded and improved reward points system which allows you to award your customers for their "good" behavior – buying products in your store, inviting their friends, etc.

Our new Magento module offers the points and rewards system implemented as well as the referral program. With Points & Rewards extension, you get one of the most powerful solutions for enhancing customers' loyalty, improving user experience, and increasing sales rates.

Rule Creation Abilities
Flexible Points & Rewards rules allow your customers to earn different number of points while buying products from various categories, with certain SKU, price, or any other item attribute.

Referral System
The Points & Rewards extension offers the built-in referral system with flexible settings, so that you can reward your customers for inviting their friends as well as for their referrals' purchases. Stimulate your customers to tell their freinds about your Magento store!

Advanced Notifications
Show your customers that you care about them - inform them about their points balance update immediately and notify of the points expiring date beforehand. The Points & Rewards extension allows tracking the transactions history exactly in the customers area. Moreover, your consumers can subscribe to balance update and get notifications about the points amount change by email.

Balance & Transactions Control
Your customers can always check their points balance right in the Account page of your store, and the current exchange rates keep them in the know how many poits can be redeemed for discounts.

The Points & Rewards extension allows tracking the transactions history exactly in the customers area. Moreover, your consumers can subscribe to balance update and get notifications about the points amount change by email.

Change Points Balance from Backend for:* Each customer individually
The Points & Rewards Magento module adds its own tab on the Customer Information page in the backend. Thus you can manage the points balance of every customer on individual basis - either increase or reduce. You can also subscribe\unsubscribe customers from points expiration and balance update notifications.

* A group of customers automatically
If you need to change the points balance of a group of customers at a time, you can easily use the high end extension's feature of the mass balance update. Just filter all your current customers in the way you need - by group, country, website, or however else, - and specify the points amount you want to add or subtract.

Amazing support and great extension
I can truly recoment this extension and the Ahead Works team as the support is flawless.

The extension itself also works perfect

Extension conflicts
I have already bought this plug-in
but this extension conflicts with the onestepcheckout, ALL the customer points can't be used .

Flexible and evolving
This is one of the more affordable Rewards extensions, and while it doesn't have some of the ultimate flexibility, we have found it to work very well and very reliably.
It's good to see the code evolve with new releases, adding new features, etc.
We have found the support to be prompt and helpful, and had some customising done to work with our template and another extension, which was done promptly and at reasonable cost.

Great Extension
Everything functions as promised, I had a few questions, and the technical support department helped me out real quick.

issue
rules are not applying to each item rather per order - is this the intention?
does anyone else have this issue?

Overall it's decent extension but support was slow.
I'm happy with this extension in general. It does most of my client wants. And I had lots of good experiences with Aheadworks before.
However there was a translation bug in the extension. So it's not fully multi-lingual out of box. And it took them more than a week to fix this bug. At the beginning, I had the feeling they refused to fix the issue because it might not be a big deal for them. Until I pointed out the exact file they should look into for fixing the bug.
I was disappointed in the technical support this time. They didn't provide any constructive advice other than clearing the cache.
Personally, I think support is more important than the product itself. Because even if there are issues or bugs, good supports fix them.
With 300 bucks, I expect more from the product and the team.

Good Extension - Increased Sales and Return Customers
Good extension. More flexibility would be nice. My biggest qualm is: There should be very easy way, out of the box, to show the number of points that will be earned on the product page, for purchasing that product. if I am missing something, let me know. I cant imagine this was an oversight.

Expected more from AheadWorks
I've been a regular, happy customer of AheadWorks for quite some time now and when I am looking for a new extension their site is the first place I visit.
I bought this addon about 2 months ago and installed it right away. Installation was easy and went smoothly with no problems at all.
After running it for a few days I realised there were a few issues - some more serious than others.
A couple of issues with buttons dissapearing when installed with AjaxCartPro, a problem with creating orders from the backend for a customer that had points to use were minor and even though it took AheadWorks almost a month for fix they were sorted out. Almost..
The most important issue with this addon is the VAT calculation. VAT value for an order paid using points is not properly calculated thus creating invalid invoices.
Say I have an order of 100 (net). The invoice generated should be 123 (including 23% vat). Now if a customer pays using 50 euros of reward points (40,65 without 23% VAT) his order should be (100-40,65)+VAT so VAT should be 13,65 and the total due 73. However, the invoice generated by AheadWork's addon is Net 100, VAT 23, POINTS 50 ending up with the correct total but wrong VAT value.
After 2 months of discussing this with AheadWorks supports I gave up trying to convince them that what the addon does is plain wrong and implemented a fix in the bridge between Magento and our ERP system to recalculate VAT.
Bottom line, I am very dissapointed with AheadWorks this time round. It seems that their success has a big impact on how they deal with their customers and for a 300€ piece of software (Windows costs less!!) this is unacceptable.

Hello,Basic support period is 90 days long and comes free of additional charges. You may also purchase 180 or 360 days of support, or extend the support period later, once it expires. While the support period is active you may turn to our team for technical support. The maximum response timeframe is 24 hours, however it usually takes much less time than that. Please also note, that our office hours are 7:00 to 15:00 GMT.More information regarding the support period can be found in the following article of the Knowledge Base at our website:"What is the Support Period, how does it work?"Thank you.

I am currently using web forms for my registraion, and when I integrated my newly purchased Points and Rewards Extension it seems that the registration points is not working, but when I removed the web forms on my registration page, the Points and Rewards Extensions Works and display the points in the Customer account.

From your description, it indeed seems like there's is a conflict between our Points And Rewards extension and some 3rd-party module.We do not provide any guarantees on our extensions' compatibility with products from our developers, our modules are designed to work with the native Magento code base.However, there is a chance that this conflict can be removed via customization. Please, contact our support service, our techs will check if we can offer any solution.Thank you.
